Aged RumRum that is aged, but no specific type or size barrel required. No set time required for length of aging, but will often carry an age statement (which should be taken with a grain of salt). Often thought of as "sipping rums".

Tasting Notes
"Interesting and funky departure from the standard 5 year old. The aromas on the nose are quite unique for a rum. The port cask influence is almost overwhelming at first. Left in the glass, the nose reveals a blackberry jammy quality with a slightly oaky backbone. The flavour profile is earthy, musty sweetness reminiscent of a wine cellar with a dirt floor. The finish is somewhat tannic and warming. Oak barrel influence is very apparent. Enjoyed it much more with a few ice cubes."
